IHSI Medical/Massage Therapy School

"Employment of massage therapists is projected to grow 23 percent from 2012 to 2022, much faster than the average for all occupations. Continued growth in the demand for massage services will lead to new openings for massage therapists."

School's Goal & Mission

It is the mission and the goal of IHSI Institute of Massage that upon graduation, each and every student will not only feel confident and competent and ready to embark on his or her exciting new
career in massage therapy but that the student will BE competent and ready
as a professional massage therapist with the experience and training to
prove it!

Course Curriculum

The course curriculum will present the human body as various "zones." Each
"zone" is discussed progressively allowing the student to become familiar
with the material being taught. In this way the student will progress
through the program in an orderly fashion.

The Course Curriculum is best described as a blend with typical Lecture and
Practical components being presented in a way that encourages and allows
the student to work side by side with the instructor in a mentoring type
environment. Total Program Hours equal 625 hours meeting State Board
requirements.

Practicum Class

Practicum Class allows the students to learn "hands on" application of
massage technique in a controlled and safe environment. All students are
encouraged to participate which means FREE MASSAGES FOR EVERYONE!!!

The Massage Class's fun and informative curriculum focuses on anatomy and
physiology as well as current and popular techniques needed for employment
in today’s fun and exciting massage therapy world. Also provided is Student
Clinic Class where you'll enjoy working with the community all the while
building the skills and opportunity to be successful in your new career!

Elective Class

Elective Class is an exciting innovation within our curriculum where you'll
have the opportunity to customize your educational experience! The Elective
Class lets you explore an area related to massage therapy that is of your
interest. For example, aromatherapy. You'll have the opportunity of
selecting an Elective of your choice and arranging participation with
greater flexibility to fit your busy life.

Just present the Elective choice to your instructor and get started.

well as any additional costs. IHSI Institute of Massage provides additional
clinical experience as an Elective Choice at no additional cost for
students who would prefer this as their choice.)
